Several things create Dead Stock:
 Customer returns, cancellations, MOJ spec changes, OEM updates and upgrades, and oversights during the ordering process. If the manufacturers took back all returns regardless of when the items were ordered you wouldn't have a dead stock problem.

Another problem with the industry is Supply and Demand. Let's say for example you need a part to fix a customer's gas pump, tank monitor or POS and the part isn't in your stock, so you call the manufacturer to order it only to discover the part is back-ordered for two to three weeks. Now your customer is mad at YOU and not the manufacturer because his revenue generating gas pump is out of service for two to three weeks.

Would it be nice to get that part the day after you need it? We believe we have a solution to the Supply and Demand issue. That solution is the Dead Stock website and the Free Parts Locating Program. Not enough distributors talk to each other about their inventory problems. While you wait for that part, another distributor has the same part in his inventory - which they may consider it to be Dead Stock. Their part gathers dust while you wait weeks for the factory to ship your order.

On this website you can list your Dead Stock inventory for others to see. It costs you nothing, it's FREE. There are no fees for the buyer or seller.

How does it work?
You enter a part in our system and it stays there until you delete it or when the listing expires in 36 months. Potential buyers are searching the site for the parts they want. You and the seller work out the delivery and payment details.

It is that simple and it turns your Dead Stock into CA$H!!

Will the OEM manufacturers be outraged at this web site?
No. Two of the pump manufacturers search the website for parts their distributors need. The manufacturers welcome this website. It keeps them from manufacturing small lots of the part (when you only need one) and removes items from your inventory.

What is an effective ad?
Consider who would purchase your inventory:

1) An end user/station owner/jobber/farmer. This type of customer who performs his own service work and is looking for a deal is the smallest segment that uses this database.

2) Contractor who needs the part ASAP. For these buyers price isn't an issue it's a matter of availablity.

3) Contractor looking for a deal. To be a deal he must consider his cost direct from the manufacturer, freight costs associated with with buying your part, and the annoyance of setting yet another vendor into the accounting system.

Is your ad accurately written? Who is your pricing targeted towards? Several things determine an effective ad. If your ads aren't selling ask us to help you write better ads.
